Here is the header that has the cookies. Here you see the cookies, because I put USERNAME and PASSWORD - which obviously aren't my real ones, so it gave the different header. If I put my actual username and password in, it gives the much smaller header.

The version of cURL in use is libcurl 7.9.7 (OpenSSL 0.9.6c). Getting page...

  Yes, there have been cookie parsing bug fixes since then.

  Well, those headers didn't contain any set cookies so therefore I asked. If
  it returns saying you lack cookies, it means it expected THIS request to pass
  on cookies which you apparently didn't. Perhaps you need to get a previous
  page first to get an initial set of cookies that is then passed on when you
  get this page?

  Many sites work that way and when I do things like this, I usally have curl
  load the login-form HTML page first, which also makes it behave even more
  like a true web browser.
